Chapter 395 Unmanned Village
Chapter 395 Unmanned Village
The sky was covered with dark clouds at night, but it was not so dark that you couldn't see your fingers. Instead, there was a faint clear light falling, which was the covered moon working hard to shine.
Chen Tao lowered his body and came to the outside of the woods as quickly as possible.
He did not enter the grove immediately, but chased the bird at the edge of the grove where it had frightened.
Finally, Chen Tao arrived at the spot where the latest bird was startled. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Tao quickly got into the woods and headed towards the source of the movement.
Chen Tao gently pushed aside bushes one after another, and finally saw a winding dirt path under a pile of dead trees.
Looking in the direction of Asuka's surprise, three people and a wheelbarrow were slowly moving along the path.
There were three people, two large and one small, wearing ancient coarse linen clothes. There was a bulging and slightly moist sack on the cart.
The car kept moving, and liquid kept dripping from the sacks to the ground.
Chen Tao suddenly felt that the three people looked familiar. After he came closer, he realized that the appearance and clothes of the three people were exactly the same as those who had just been punished by him.
Damn it! What a hell?
No, this event is originally called Anomaly Battle Royale. Hell, it should be normal, right?
Thinking of this, Chen Tao couldn't help but scolded the organizers in his heart. They were not thinking of ways to improve the quality of teaching day by day, and they were doing the most terrible things in the world all day long. I don't know what I'm thinking about.
Chen Tao did not follow the three figures immediately. Instead, he found a relatively strong tree to hide under. He needed to figure out what he should do now.
First of all, the teammates should be unable to be contacted, or easily contacted, so you can just give up the idea of looking for or joining them.
As for the second point, it is what to do now.
After all, he has to stay here for 72 hours. If possible, Chen Tao would like to find a safe place to hide in until the time is up.
But based on his understanding of the organizer and the current situation, this path is absolutely unworkable.
Chen Tao's choice now is nothing more than two ways, follow the three figures who have been crushed by him to find out, or run away without looking back, how far, how far, how fast , run so fast.
Under normal circumstances, many people would choose to follow it to find out. After all, even if the car really overturns, it can still be revived.
But Chen Tao is not an ordinary person, and he also hates being alone when something suddenly comes out of the darkness and scares him. Although he can be said to have no taboos with his current strength, he is very uncomfortable with it, so It’s better to take less trips into this muddy water.
"Curiosity will kill the cat. If you don't run away now, when will you wait?"
Chen Tao muttered, turned around, and ran away directly in the opposite direction of the three figures, joking that only a dog would fall into such an obvious trap.
Chen Tao was very fast. He rushed out of the woods in just a few breaths, then found a random direction and continued running non-stop.
He didn't know that the moment he ran out of the grove, the entire grove changed. Although the grove was a little dry before, many trees could still be seen, but after he came out, the grove did look like a In the scene of purgatory, all the trees have turned into burnt stumps, and the ground is also a patch of black ash and scorched earth.
It seems that there was a big fire here not long ago.
After Chen Tao ran about seven or eight miles in one breath, he began to see square fields. The crops in the fields were all sparse and withered. This scene coincided with the dry grove that Chen Tao looked at. He thought that there had been no rain for a long time here. It's been raining.
When Chen Tao first chose the direction to run, it seemed random, but in fact he had already noticed the shadowy houses here.
The house is less than two miles away from the farmland. From a distance, it looks like a small village. Judging from the number and location of the houses, there should be about seventy or eighty households in the village.
Maybe it was because it was late at night, but Chen Tao didn't see anyone walking around or having lights on.
Chen Tao walked very slowly on the path into the village. He didn't know why. Although there was no wind, he always felt the wind blowing behind him.
Wait, that’s not right!
As Chen Tao was about to enter the village, he suddenly saw that the courtyard doors and house doors of several houses were wide open.
Wucao is a ghost village.
Wait, aren't the ghost villages already booked? This saves me having to look for them one by one.
Chen Tao is not afraid of ghosts, but he hates unknown creatures suddenly jumping out from the side when he is not paying attention.
As he tightened his grip on the spear, he thought about the physics exorcism knowledge taught by the university teacher not long ago, and the scene of the class was still vivid in his mind.
"...Don't be afraid when you encounter this kind of Piao who will disappear if you cut it. There are many ways to solve them. Now, students, listen to me and tell me the two simplest ones..."
"The first is to increase your strength as much as possible and then cut with a knife, exceeding the threshold of A Piao's ability to bear the attack."
"The second method is to increase the speed of swinging your weapon. As the saying goes, all martial arts in the world are invincible, only speed. As long as your speed is fast enough, you can kill Ah Piao before he can react..."
...
Thinking like this all the way, Chen Tao arrived at the gate of the first house at the entrance of the village.
The yard is just a fence of less than one meter made of small branches.
At this time, the simple and dilapidated gate was open, and the doors and windows of the three thatched houses in the courtyard were also wide open.
A faint smell of blood mixed with a faint smell of corpses was wafting out of the simple thatched house.
An inexplicable wind blew by, and Chen Tao couldn't help but shudder.
After thinking about it for a while, I finally didn’t go in.
Then Chen Tao went to the second house, the third house...
Eight or nine houses in a row had their doors open, and there was no sign of anyone, except for the smell of corpses and blood that wafted out of the house from time to time.
This was the case until the tenth house. This time, Chen Tao finally did not leave directly again. Instead, he stepped through the collapsed gate and walked slowly towards the main house.
In fact, when Chen Tao was in his first home, he was thinking about whether he should leave the village directly.
Because no matter how stupid he was, he should have just come out of the house when he was in the second or third house. Everyone in the house should be dead, and the bodies are still in the house.
What puzzled him was the faint smell of blood and corpse odor. Normally, the smell of corpse odor would not be so light, but the faint but upward smell also reminded him that the corpse was still in the house.
What is the reason why the corpse odor has become lighter?
Chen Tao directly crossed out the "dead for a long time" line, because although the buildings here are old, the village is full of traces of life. Although it is a little faded, Chen Tao can be sure that these traces are definitely no more than a week old.
Then there is only one possibility that the body has been moved outside the house.
